Finished up a weeklong production in Phoenix recently and I'm really excited about how this came out....
Just finished up a multi week project shooting an image library for a gas utility on behalf of their ad agency Karo, there's a huge amount of files from the shoot that I boiled down to about 500 to show the client. The job involved about 4500KM of driving and ...
Here's a couple from a recent studio shoot that I really like:
Just got back from a couple of straight weeks on the road, shooting a bunch of different projects for different clients that got all strung together at once in a nice little package. Here's a few I shot for a favourite client for their upcoming recruiting campaign. After two straight ...
Been working on a project with an agency for an oilfield services company and they wanted to do a series of black and whites of workers in action. Here's a few of my favourites from last week's shoot....
I love shooting Annual Reports, love it! Most of the time, clients have a vision for what the photography should look like for their annual and they usually get some creative direction from an outside agency. I love this because it gives me a chance to work within a framework ...
I do an awful lot of corporate portraits in the run of a year and I enjoy doing them, sometime clients insist on a seamless background but, most of the time, they agree with my assessment that this is the most boring picture in the world and we get to ...
This is not, in fact, Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones is in reference to the old saying, "keeping up with the Joneses". Something I have not been able to do lately. I've noticed a trend among some of the ...
Here's some recent work for one of my favourite clients, Packers Plus. These ads are from magazines and a billboard campaign that appeared all over Canada, the US and parts of Europe....
I don't shoot a lot of food but, when a client of mine, whom I really like working with, asked me if I'd shoot their products for new marketing materials they were creating, I couldn't say no. I ...
This year, Calgary has suffered what I think must be the worst winter ever. Non stop snow, cold, grey skies, wind, freezing rain, blah, blah, blah. This year's war was hell. So much so that getting out of ...
Sorry Chase, but, you're two weeks behind. The good snow in Telluride melted right after I finished my shoot there. Now stop following me and find some locations of your own ferchrissakes :) http://blog.chasejarvis.com/blog/2011/03/diary-of-a-campaign-shoot-day-1/ Oh, the Pad Thai at Honga's is the best you'll ever eat! Can't recommend it enough....
I took some time today to do portraits of my very old Labrador Retrievers, Newman and Blue. Got me thinking about how interesting it would be to do whole series of dogs in exactly this type of ...
Last night, I was watching some TV show about people who repo cars in LA, cheaply produced mindless crap (like most television) but, something to help me relax before nap time. Anyway, in one scene, the cast sings Happy Birthday to someone else on the show but, the cast signing ...
Here's some images I did a few weeks ago for AOSC's annual report...
Here's a shot of my assistant Chris, in the back of a helicopter, sleeping on the job last week. This is a pretty blatant violation of rule 206, section 23, paragraph 11 of the "Photography Assistants Manual" which ...
I've been spending a lot of time in remote camps over the last few weeks, finishing up annual report photography for various industrial and oil and gas companies that I create images for. Shot this a week or ...
Returned home last week from a 10 day trip to Belize where I did a 4 day lifestyle shoot. I spent the other 6 days diving, drinking, fishing geckos out of my shoes and basically laying around like ...
The week between Christmas and New Years has, for me, always been a chance to breathe. Things leading up the holidays always seem to suck me along in a whirlwind of small, final projects, year end meetings, planning ...
Just spent three days shooting stock in the US. Sitting in the airport in Santa Fe New Mexico, just ate the best breakfast burrito I've ever had (in an airport, go figure), it's sunny outside and there's Christmas ...
Man I like organization. It just makes my life easier and it makes it possible for me to squeeze every single once of possible productivity out of every day. I recently stumbled onto a software program called Evernote and man is it nice! Download this program and if you have ...
Things continue to be busy here in the onewordphotography bunker so, posting is a little slow. Anyway, Picked up the HC 150 Hassy lens a few weeks ago and had a chance to try it out on an ...
Here's a great piece in the New York Times explaining why that cheap and tacky microstock is not what you should be putting on your website if you want people to take your business seriously. http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/11/02/study-shows-people-ignore-generic-photos-online/ Don't get me ...
I love a good tempest in a teapot and this one just seemed to hit me at the right time of day. The gist is this; small magazine steals article off the internet and original author discovers the theft. Author writes thief suggesting they should not steal and that there ...
I've finally finished editing images from my time in East Africa, click the link below to see the slideshow of my favourites. See the slideshow here
Started editing my stuff from Africa today, first time I've looked at it since coming home more than 2 months ago. Here's a shot I took in Stone Town Zanzibar. Always nice to see stuff a few months ...
So far today, I've spent 16 hours in my office doing post. I figure I have about 40 more hours to go. This is one of the countless images I processed today.
Industrial portraiture is a niche that I've kinda carved out for myself over the years. Not sure why really. Just happened. It is, to me both challenging and rewarding at the same time. Today however, my subject Dave Colon made it ...

[caption id="attachment_555" align="aligncenter" width="600" caption="copyright Dan Bannister"] [/caption] I've been out of town over the last few days working on images for an ad campaign for Siemens AG. Since Monday, I've been at a gas plant, along with the Siemens ...
[caption id="attachment_551" align="aligncenter" width="600" caption="copyright Joe McNally"][/caption] I've been remiss in posting this for a while now, hectic summer and all but, if you don't already know, CAPIC, The Canadian Association of Photographers and Illustrators in Communications are sponsoring a weekend with ...
I'd love to know what the deal is with regards to getting such a large settlement without having registered the images with the US copyright office. Everyone with an opinion (on the internet) said this was not possible. Apparently, not all the information you get off the internet is correct(!) Either ...
Here's one from my most recent trip to Africa. More to come soon, I've been buried with other work and have to get caught up with the commercial editing first but, in short, Africa was fantastic. I've been talking to ...
I don't do much in the way of food photography, I'm more of a people, locations, landscapes/cityscapes kind of guy. Maybe when I get older and want to hang around a warm studio all day with a coffee and brandy I'll try building a book of food but, in the ...
